ACQUISITIONS
Before listing a selected group of book purchases acquired during the past year, we wish to call attention to some rather unusual and certainly much appreciated gifts received:<
In April 1965, Mrs. C. Kyle Hughes presented the library with the first edi- tion, published in 1829, of Samuel S.
Fitch's, "System of dental surgery." The first edition, as was the second edition, published in 1835, was composed of three parts, although published in one volume.
The second edition has been a part of the library collection since its inception and bears the signature of the first dean, Dr.
Phineas G. C. Hunt. The gift from Mrs.
Hughes came from the library of her late father, Dr. Russell L. Swindler, a prac- ticing dentist in Logansport, Indiana from 1904 to 1935 and a graduate of Indiana Dental College in 1904. This book, after cataloging, will be placed among the rare books.
In May 1965, Dr. Richard A. Missel- horn presented the Library with three volumes published by the Indiana Histori- cal Society. He recognized them in a box of books being sold at auction and bought the complete box for 75 cents!
The most valuable is Eli Lilly's PRE- HISTORIC ANTIQUITIES OF IN- DIANA published by the Society in 1937.
This has been out of print for many years and i5 quite a collector's item, and very valuable.
The volume entitled WALAM OLUM OR RED SCORE, THE MIGRATION LEGEND OF THE LENNI LENAPE OR DELAWARE INDIANS is a valuable history of the Delaware Indian Tribe, which is also out of print.
44 FALL, 1965, ALUMNI BULLETIN, I.U.S.D.
Mrs. Mabel Walker
The third volume is Russo's A BIBLIO-
GRAPHY OF JAMES WHITCOMB
RILEY.
Dr. Misselhorn is particularly interested in having the students and faculty aware of the kind of material which is available with membership in the Indiana Histori- cal Society.
The books will be placed in the collec- tion in the Browsing Room.

PSYCHOSOMATICS AND DENTISTRY David Thomas Amos, B.S., D.D.S.
1964
The psychosomatic concept in dentistry has been approached in a two-fold man- ner: a) the interrelationship of psycho- logical factors and dental problems as re- flected in the literature has been discussed, confirming th_e hypothesis that psychoso-
matic dentistry should be acknowledged by the dental profession as an integral part of the dental school curriculum; b)
~.second hypothesis, namely a possible correlation between dental decay and psychopathology has been tested as follows: 70 institutionalized mentally ill patients, 25 males and 45 females, were administered the MMPI (Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory), ICL (Interpersonal Check List), and the following indices were determined: Rus- sell's periodontal classification, the DMFT
(Decayed, Missing and Filled Teeth) and the DMFS (Decayed, Missing and Filled Surfaces). Findings show the average number of teeth and tooth surfaces af- fected, using the DMFT and DMFS were found to be more for the institutionalized mentally ill than for the average non- institutionalized person. Findings also show that while the ICL did not corre- late with the dental scores, some of the :MMPI scores did. The MMPI, consider- ed by psychologists a much more subtle instrument than the Interpersonal Check List, did yield some positive results in this study, thus supporting to some degree the hypothesis that there is a relationship be- tween dental decay and psychopathology.
TOOTH MOBILITY AND INSTANTAN- EOUS CENTERS OF ROTATION Richard Louis Christiansen 1964
Tooth mobility as it relates to ortho- dontics has not been thoroughly explored.
The immediate aim of this project was to develop and test instrumentation to measure both tooth mobility and instq.~
taneous centers of rotation under forces applied perpendicular to the tooth long ex1s.
Two identical dial micrometers were seiected and modified to allow variability in range, calibration, and contact pressure.
All forces were delivered by mechanical force meters.
A holding device was constructed to permit rigid positioning of a micrometer perpendicular to the long axis of any tooth in the arch and measure mobility at one point on the tooth. With an ap- plied force of 500 gm., mobility measure- ments were made with the instrument on 44 teeth of six orthodontic patients. By repeating the analyses the instrument re- producibility was demonstrated. The pat- tern of tooth movement to applied force was explored and related to possible stress levels in tipping movements.
A second holding device allowed both micrometers to contact a dental extension which was fixed to a maxillary central incisor. An incisor from each of four preorthodontic and two postorthodontic patients was analyzed. Over 200 clinical centers of rotation were calculated from measurements of tooth movements at two points on the tooth's long axis. Results from the first three patients were erratic.
The rotation centers of the last three patients generally remained at midroot and also near the theoretical center of the tooth for all forces applied over 50 gm.
More comprehensive studies on tooth mobility are recommended.
THE EXPERIMENTAL PRODUCTION OF MACROSCOPIC CYSTS BY AUTOGENOUS EPITHELIAL IMPLANTS
Thomas B. Fast 1964
The purpose was to develop a stand technique for the experimental production of macroscopic cysts by implantation of fixed amounts of epithelium (skin and oral mucosa) attached to gutta percha disc templates. These epithelial-disc im- plants were placed subcutaneously in both the monkey and the rat. Complete epithe- lial lined sacs surrounding the discs were
found only in the skin-disc implants in the rat. This greater success is attributed to the fact that asepsis was more easily
